The Immigration Fight

“The rumblings in respect of the immigration issue are getting so loud and so frequent that it’s going to be difficult for the politicians to defer action for much longer. Last week, Rep. Steve King, a Republican of Iowa who is a member of the Judiciary Committee’s subcommittee on immigration, stopped by our office to, among other things, call for what he described as “a selfish immigration policy.” He said a survey of his constituents found 97% of them wanted to eliminate all illegal immigration and reduce legal immigration. Mr. King said that Rep. Thomas Tancredo, chairman of the congressional immigration-reform caucus, has been in Iowa laying the groundwork for a potential 2008 presidential run focused on immigration. Mr. Tancredo has offered legislation that calls for deploying the Army and the Air Force to keep immigrants from crossing the border into America illegally.”
